Comfortable stay
We were down to watch Margaret Atwood speak at the Jubilee Auditorium and we’re very happy with the ease of finding this hotel afterward along with the friendly check-in. After a long day the comfortable bed was a welcomed relief.

This property is in a convenient place. However, construction in the area made it difficult to park. The room was clean but run down looking. TV reception was very poor. Breakfast was disappointing (not much of a variety). Upon check in, there is a $100.00 deposit added to your room, but refunded upon check out. I find this amount a bit much, as other places I have stayed at charge $50.00. Staff were polite & courteous.

14 September 2024
I know I shouldn’t expect too much with a place where the room is $120. But I would expect cleanliness.
The bathroom had something yellow and mushy on the ceiling and it’s a low ceiling so very obvious. And there were tiny hairs in the bathtub. The bed was uncomfortable. There was a constant ringing that went on.
